An inventive novel about wishes and regret. - Kirkus Reviews Tildy Sullivan is the middle child in an elite yet fading Manhattan family. Her quiet practicality hides her deep, profound longing for childhood summers in western Ireland. She also carries a secret regret. Eight years ago, after her mother's death, she was persuaded to abandon Ireland and the love of a local boy. She now believes happiness is lost to her.
